Background[]

A Young boy who grew up in a small village in forest called kokiri forest

After the events of Ocarina of Time, Link was sent on a quest to find his friend and companion Navi, who went off on her own shortly after the defeat of Ganon. His journey came to a halt when he crossed paths with Skullkid, Tatl and Tael, who are a group of troublemakers who steal from travelers for fun. Needless to say, they steal Link's Ocarina and ride off on Epona. His chase for the troublemakers ends with him in a weird lair, where he stands eye to eye with Skullkid and no Epona in sight.

Skullkid proceeds to transform Link into a Deku Scrub, leaving Link distraught from the recent events. When Skullkid flees, he unintentionally leaves Tatl behind. Tatl is not able to escape since she cannot open doors on her own as a fairy, which leaves her to work with Link, now a Deku Scrub, to follow Skullkid. Their search ultimatle leads them to Termina, a parallel country to Hyrule.

While searching for Skullkid in hopes of being turned back to normal and get back what was stolen, Link soon finds out that Skullkid has sent the moon on a crash course to Termina and the only way to prevent this is to wake the Four Giants of Termina. Together, Link and Tatl are thrown into an adventure across this new country to wake the giants and stop the moon from crashing into Termina.

Powers & Abilities[]

  • Enhanced Endurance: The Great Fairy of Courage give Link double the defense as a gift for retrieving her stray fairies from Great Bay Temple.
  • Magic Spin Attack: By striking a certain pose, Link is able to infuse magic into his sword. When Link breaks this pose and goes into a spinning attack, he disburses the magic out of the sword for greater range. The longer he stays in this pose, the range on the Magic Spin Attack will increase. At first, the Magic will be blue, which changes over to a red state with farther range. However, Link can use the red state of the Magic Spin Attack without striking the pose and without using magic.

Link's power increases in this form and he can shoot out beams from his sword.
